Configure the Secondary VMA SAN Gateway
Power up the ‘secondary’ VMA SAN Gateway and log in using a serial connection CLI or KVM
session. At this time configure the secondary VMA SAN Gateway as according to the ‘Configuring a
Secondary HP VMA SAN Gateway Node’ section of the ‘HP VMA-series SAN Gateway Installation
and Configuration Guide’, P/N AM456-9025A’.
When using the setup wizard (or using the ‘configuration jump-start’ command) to configure the
‘secondary’ gateway, be sure to respond ‘NO’ to Step 1 which asks if you want to ‘configure as
master/stand-alone?’. For Step 2 enter ‘eth1’ (default) and enter the IP address planned for the
‘secondary’ gateway at Step 3 of the configuration wizard. For Step 6, accept the default setting of
‘eth1’.
It is important for Step 7 that you accept the default Cluster ID that was pre-configured with the
‘secondary’ gateway which is also printed on the Cluster ID and License Key label on the top right
front of the gateway server enclosure. Do not enter the same Cluster ID as assigned to the ‘primary’
gateway at this time.
The following is an example using the gateway configuration wizard (configuration jump-start) to
enter the initial configuration settings on the ‘secondary’ gateway.

Press '?' for help, Ctrl+B to go back to the previous step.
Default value is in square brackets: press Enter to accept it.
Press Ctrl+R to clear default to enter empty string.
Press Ctrl+C to jump to the end of the wizard at any time.
Step 1: Configure as master/stand-alone? [yes] no
Step 2: Public interface name? [eth1]
Step 3: Public interface IP address? 10.61.184.242
Step 4: Public interface netmask? 255.255.255.0
Step 5: Hostname? [memgate-06639c] hp-gateway2
Step 6: Cluster interface name? [eth1]
Step 7: Cluster id? [00500-0008-7178] <<= leave this set to the default value
Save the ‘secondary’ gateway configuration by exiting the configuration wizard (configuration jump-
start).
Update the Secondary Gateway Software
Update the VMA SAN Gateway software OE to be the same version as running on the ‘primary’
gateway. For the initial release of redundant gateway pairs this will be an update to VMA SAN
Gateway software OE version G5.1.0. Please refer to the HP VMA SAN Gateway Software Update
Guide (AM456-9022A) document available at www.hp.com/go/vma-docs for step-by-step details of
the update process for the VMA SAN Gateway, including how to obtain the VMA SAN Gateway
software OE update.
You can determine the VMA SAN Gateway Software OE version that is running on each gateway by
issuing the ‘show version’ command.
This step of individually updating the gateway software on the ‘secondary’ VMA SAN Gateway for
pairing of the gateways will only need to be done as part of this initial gateway pairing process.
